$40 credit != $10/month for four months. Awesome offer though!

  ill update the post, ta.
mick123 on 25/09/2009 - 15:34

is Bandit.fm web radio or music downloads?
- infinity89 on 25/09/2009 - 15:39
  
  DRM free music downloads.
  You get 320kbps Mp3s
SmiTTy on 25/09/2009 - 15:58

nice one , just registered and I can see my $10. Does the monthly $10 automatically get credited? (didnt need to enter paypal details)
- infinity89 on 25/09/2009 - 16:07
  
  I presume so :)
wezza on 25/09/2009 - 16:36

Cool.. thanks for that. Gives me a chance to check it out! :)
kiwipride on 25/09/2009 - 16:49

Thanks!
SmokeandMirrors on 25/09/2009 - 17:37

Thanks. I got the confirmation email almost instantly but my wife didnt (hasnt gotten it for about 10 minutes now). Wonder if they have stopped it

  Just got the confirmation email. Took about 1 hour
kiwipride on 25/09/2009 - 17:50

I have made 2 accounts. ….is that bad?
- infinity89 on 25/09/2009 - 17:52
  
  haha do they both have $10 credit ?
  btw ive got 2 accounts as well (one of them from the last $20 bandit offer) ;)
  - kiwipride on 25/09/2009 - 18:10
    
    yes, they do. promise I won't make anymore. Although my wife and 2 kids might
- [Deactivated] on 25/09/2009 - 18:08
  
  Bad or not, doing so goes against the spirit of the offer since after the first account you probably can't consider yourself a "new member". It also prevents others from legitimately taking up this offer since there are only 5000 vouchers available. If you're going to go to the trouble of registering more than one account you might as well pirate the music. :)
  - kiwipride on 25/09/2009 - 18:12
    
    yep, normally do that, but thought that i might owe the industry a few dollars. (so to speak)
infinity89 on 25/09/2009 - 17:50

Can anyone confirm that this is still working ?
Thanks
- floorpie on 25/09/2009 - 18:05
  
  i just signed up a few minutes ago and it worked.

Go to http://www.bandit.fm/redemption to redeem the voucher after registering.

  ill add this link to the description, ta.
SomeGuyOnOzB on 25/09/2009 - 21:54

Just did it fine. You don't have to wait for an email confirmation.

After applying the voucher, you can check My Account - Credit Balances and instantly see if you got $10 :)

Quick glance, one MP3 on the front page was $1.63, so you can get a few MP3s :) free, per month :)
mjs on 25/09/2009 - 22:35

Just tried it, all good. Got confirmation email straight away. Thanks!
spodosaurus on 25/09/2009 - 22:51

I can confirm you do not need to register CC or Paypal details to redeem the credit.
- spodosaurus on 26/09/2009 - 22:15
  
  Looks like they either closed the loophole or all the 5000 vouchers have been used.
mad__llama on 26/09/2009 - 01:10

Does anyone know if the credit expires at the end of each month? Can I save up for a full album (costing $14 for example) over two months?
- infinity89 on 26/09/2009 - 01:20

  it expires at the end of each month, so you cant save up for the full album. But instead you could buy half the songs individually in one month and the rest in the next ;)
  - mad__llama on 26/09/2009 - 19:25
    
    cheers!
XyleneFree on 26/09/2009 - 21:22

Wouldn't work for me. Perhaps the 5000 spots are taken…
SomeGuyOnOzB on 28/09/2009 - 15:03

I wonder if you can team up the offers :)

http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/16380

Use the $10 this month to buy a cheap album (or offset the price of an album) and get another $20 credit :)

Similar to what pibloktoq did :) on that offer

I guess everybody wins :) They get a few more dollars for stuff they already hold. We get to enjoy some more music cheaply … they also get more advertising :)

I'm also realising, if one wants a few albums, and was prepared to pay for them before joining Bandit … it can be much more cost effective to use the $10 a month as an album3 offset, rather than just getting 4 of say 20 tracks, per month, for free …

eg one album I'm looking at is $14.69 … with 20 tracks (most at $2.20) … individually the tracks are $44 … I won't end up getting the entire album even after 4 months …

Hmm :P
- spodosaurus on 29/09/2009 - 15:33
  
  read the fine print - the album cannot be purchased with credit from vouchers in whole or in part.
  - SomeGuyOnOzB on 29/09/2009 - 16:44
    
    thanks
SomeGuyOnOzB on 28/09/2009 - 15:19

Just went to make a purchase and my $10 credit disappeared? :S

I've emailed them to ask if they can fix it … perplexed
- kiwipride on 28/09/2009 - 17:07
  
  Same here! Have you had a response?
- [Deactivated] on 28/09/2009 - 17:15
  
  Wow, WTF… my credit has completely disappeared here too. I've made no purchases.
  - kiwipride on 28/09/2009 - 17:19
    
    Time to test their servers?
    - [Deactivated] on 28/09/2009 - 17:26
      
      Well, I hope it's something to do with their servers rather than them revoking the offer or some other dodgy business! Doesn't exactly inspire confidence in their service, though, does it?
      - kiwipride on 28/09/2009 - 17:41
        
        @[Deactivated]: I was thinking about the maths the other day. 5000 x 40 (10 x 4 months) = $200,000!!! Maybe someone at Bandit.fm also finally did the maths too!
QQQ - CatchOfTheDay on 28/09/2009 - 17:42

Not working for me sadfase.
infinity89 on 28/09/2009 - 18:26

Just got another email from Take40.com with reference to this offer. Maybe its back up again, if it didnt work last time maybe give it another go :)
SomeGuyOnOzB on 28/09/2009 - 20:18

not working for me :S

no word from them yet, either.

Maybe they'll fix things up or just credit us the $40 :P
SomeGuyOnOzB on 29/09/2009 - 12:52

They just emailed me back. One of the terms and conditions for the credit, was, register your credit card or paypal as the preferred method of payment.

So, they've asked me to fix that up on my account, then email them back so they can fix my account :)
- kiwipride on 29/09/2009 - 13:25
  
  Are you going to?
  - SomeGuyOnOzB on 04/10/2009 - 00:53
    
    ? :)
    - SomeGuyOnOzB on 08/10/2009 - 11:17
      
      Confirming they have fixed my account. I'm unsure if they've fixed my account specifically or everybody's. I just received an email saying, if I put in my credit card or paypal details, the credits will be reinstated.
      
      I already put my details in before this email and the credit was there when I checked :)
      
      (Also they were very polite about it all; saying that they hadn't drawn enough attention to the need to put in credit card or Paypal details … very nice of them :) )
so_fetch on 03/10/2009 - 12:20

didnt work for me :(
